Free CAD layout and itemized quote.

Underneath that is usually restockers and pickers sharing the same aisle, and it gets worse every month the layout stays the same. Carton flow rack feeds cases down sloped wheel beds to a pick face, restocked from the back, so pickers stop waiting on replenishment and stop walking past empty slots. We size the carton flow rack to your loads, your forklifts, and the clear height you already lease, then send a CAD layout with pick faces counted and an itemized quote. Call (312) 815-2445 and tell us what you store in Elk Grove Village. (312) 815-2445 ## Why Elk Grove Village Warehouses Work With Us Elk Grove Village is a market where thousands of mid-size industrial buildings in the Technology Park, many from the 1960s and 70s with 18- to 24-foot clear heights. Whether your building sits near the Devon Avenue industrial strip or closer to Busse Woods, the column grid and usable height decide the carton flow rack design, not a catalog drawing. As a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., we have designed storage for manufacturing and data center & electronics operators across Chicagoland since 1997. For carton flow rack, the fit question is usually restocking from the back aisle so the pick line keeps moving, and we answer it during a free warehouse consultation before you commit. Steel moves from our Westmont warehouse to Elk Grove Village in about 25 minutes over I-390, I-90, and I-290. Our own installation crews build the system, and the same person who drew your layout answers the phone when a beam gets hit two years later.

Manufacturing Data center & electronics Food distribution Metal fabrication ## How Carton Flow Rack Works Cases advance to the picker instead of the picker hunting for cases. 1 ### Inclined wheel beds A full-width wheel bed or roller track sits on a slight incline inside a standard bay, so cases move forward under their own weight without power. 2 ### Pick from a fixed position The picker always reaches for the same forward spot in the lane. Travel time drops, and so does the time spent searching for the next case. 3 ### Restock from behind Replenishment loads the high end of the lane from a separate aisle, so restocking never blocks or slows the pick line, and rotation stays first in, first out automatically. 4 ### One lane per SKU Lane dividers set the width for each case size, giving every SKU its own face - a width that can be resized as your product mix shifts. ## What a Carton Flow Rack Project Includes Every carton flow rack project in Elk Grove Village begins with the numbers: what you store, how heavy it is, what lifts it, and how tall the usable space is. We collect those during a free warehouse consultation by phone, along with a floor plan or a few photos if you have them. Our design team then builds a CAD layout showing pick faces, level elevations, and aisle widths, with load ratings for each level noted on the drawing. The quote is itemized by component, so you see cost per position instead of a lump sum. Where it helps, we price a second option on the same floor plan, with gravity wheel beds feeding cases to a fixed pick face, so the tradeoff is a number instead of an opinion. Once you approve the layout, steel is scheduled and delivered in drops that fit your dock. Our installation crews build the carton flow rack exactly as drawn, confirm it performs loaded, and tag every bay. The job is phased so your Elk Grove Village operation keeps running, and later additions go through the same team. Case and each picking operations Order fulfillment lines carrying many active SKUs Grocery, beverage, and consumer goods distribution Kitting and light assembly feed lines Bays that need reserve pallets stacked above the pick face Call (312) 815-2445: (312) 815-2445 ## Recent Installations Racking projects completed for warehouses across Chicago and the surrounding suburbs.
